Specifications

The Thermo Scientific™ pMCS-Renilla Luc Vector is a multiple cloning site plasmid to designed to accept a promoter sequence for study of gene regulation using the intracellular Renilla luciferase reporter.

The Green Renilla Luc Vectors contain a gene cloned from the sea pansy, Renilla reniformis. The gene encodes a bioluminescent Green Renilla luciferase (36kDa). The pMCS vector contains a multiple cloning site for cloning a promoter to study its regulatory potential. The pCMV and pTK vectors have the luciferase gene under the CMV (Cytomegalovirus) promoter and Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) thymidine kinase (TK) promoter, respectively. These constitutive expression vectors can be used as normalization controls to account for experimental variation in combination with other reporters.
